2026年 2月 04日(水曜日) 17:54
Total Global Market Size of Frozen French Fries
Frozen French fries are semi-finished or finished French fries made from fresh potatoes through processes such as washing, peeling, cutting, blanching, drying, frying, pre-cooling, and quick freezing. The product is transported and stored under low temperature conditions and needs to be reheated (such as frying, baking, or air frying) before consumption. According to the Chinese industry standard SB/T 10631-2011, frozen French fries should have complete strips, uniform color, no odor, no visible impurities, and meet the requirements for food safety-related microbial and heavy metal limits. Its advantages lie in convenience, standardization, and high food delivery efficiency, and it is widely used in the catering and retail sectors.
Key Drivers of the Market
1、Global Standardization in Food Service Menus: Frozen French fries serve as an essential side dish for core menu items such as burgers and fried chicken in the global food service industry, including fast-food chains, creating a stable demand base.
2、Convenience and High Cooking Efficiency: For restaurants and institutional catering, pre-cut, blanched, and pre-fried frozen French fries reduce cooking time, lower labor costs, and ensure consistent taste and quality, making them indispensable processed foods in commercial kitchens.
3、Maturation of the Home Frozen Food Market: Driven by the rise of dual-income households and demand for simplified cooking, the market for frozen foods easily prepared in ovens or air fryers has solidified, with French fries established as a staple category.
According to the latest report titled “Global Market Share and Ranking of Leading Companies in Frozen French Fries (2026)” released by the YHResearch research team, the global Frozen French Fries market is projected to grow from USD 18682 million in 2025 to USD 22904 million by 2031, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.5% during 2025–2031.
The report provides a comprehensive analysis of the current status and future trends of the global Frozen French Fries market, helping stakeholders understand market size by product type, application, company, region, and country.
Future Development Potential
1、Potential as Emergency Reserve Food: With long shelf life and high carbohydrate content, frozen French fries may be re-evaluated as an option for disaster preparedness reserves (except in scenarios with refrigeration limitations due to power outages).
2、Addressing Aging Society Needs: Growing demand for “soft foods” and “care foods” that are easy to chew and swallow in aging societies creates opportunities to develop frozen French fries that retain fried flavor while offering a tender texture.
3、Deepening Demand for Home Convenience Cooking: Particularly in developed countries, demand for simple home cooking (using ovens or air fryers) rose during the pandemic and has become entrenched. Product development is advancing to meet consumer desires for restaurant-style flavors or unique shapes.
Key Challenges Hindering Market Growth
1、Headwinds from Rising Health Awareness: Growing consumer caution toward high-calorie, high-fat fried foods due to concerns about obesity and lifestyle diseases may suppress consumption.
2、Rising Transportation Costs and Supply Chain Disruption: As frozen cargo, transportation costs are higher than for general goods. Post-pandemic global logistics disruptions and rising fuel prices further risk undermining cost competitiveness and supply stability in international sales.
3、Impact of Food Service Industry Slowdown and Labor Shortages: Amid sluggish growth in Japan’s overall food service market due to population decline and pandemic effects, severe labor shortages in restaurants may lead to reduced menu complexity, potentially shrinking the presence of labor-intensive items like French fries.
